The Darkest Surrender by Gena Showalter
Possessed by the demon of Defeat, Strider cannot lose a challenge without suffering unimaginable pain. For him, nothing stands in the way of victory. Until Kaia, an enchanting Harpy, tempts him to the razor's edge of surrender.Known among her people as The Disappointment, Kaia must bring home the gold in the Harpy Games or die. Strider is a distraction she can't afford because he has an agenda of his own-steal first prize, an ancient godly artifact, before the winner can be named. But as the competition heats up, only one prize will matter-the love neither had thought possible...This is my favorite book in this series so far! I knew it was going to be good when the book started out with Kaia and her sister Bianka aka the Heavenly Hills Ho are dress shopping and the look they are trying to achieve is slutty yet sophisticated. Since we're on the topic of fashion I give Sabin winner of the best male t shirt slogan ever! I also learned a bit of excellent advice from William.....never confirm or deny something you've done, but always threaten those who question you. While at the Harpy Olympics we meet Neeka. She has a small part but when your voted most likely to go off the deep end and kill everyone around, that sounds like my kind of people.
I give this book 5 chocolate dipped strawberries and a first aid kit living with Harpies is dangerous.
PEACE
God I love this series been waiting for this to come out
